Fire HD 10's & Vanilla Android - General Questions and Answers

First thanks for responding.
I am a tech have used ADB and fastboot / rooting , but this is a step further for me. I have installed countless OS's on servers and PC's and ARM based SBC's.
I bought 5 Fire HD 10's over a period of time for the Family. Added google play store to them all. However this Fire OS is just to chuggy. Before I proceed I know I need to identify which ver I have np there.
Been looking and it looks pretty unclear how to just wipe out whatever is on the Fire HD 10 tablet and install a clean vanilla android OS. LineageOS looked promising but doesn't show in the supported list. I finally found a guide which leads me to the following questions.
1) Will the below guide work in providing me access to the device to install whatever OS I want?
See Attached Image its not letting me post outside links as a new user...
2) Is there guide for which OS's I should install based on my Fire 10 Version? IE what OS would you recommend? Can you provide a link to the downloads? I can find lineageOS already not sure on the rest though.
3) Assuming that my question #1 will work will the below link also as to installing the custom OS?

If TWRP or custom ROMs exist for your model number of Kindle, do a Google search for.
"TWRP for (your specific model number)"
And
"Custom ROMs for (your specific model number)"
You need to know your specific model number, go to system settings>about and look around for your model number if you don't already know it, use that model number in your searches. If it exists for your device, those searches should find what you can use.

Guys help me find model number micromax

Note : I am not a n00b, but the situation is like this:
I need to ask this into Question and Answer forum but currently It's not available (May be server down or link dead). I got a Micromax Canvas Tablet gifted by friend because he has forgot the pattern lock. And I went to recovery and decide to wipe/clear data and cache but unfortunately, this option is not available only two option:
1) Update from adb
2) reboot system now
Then, I decided to flash it but don't know the model number, I asked to him and he forgot it, but his guess was "p4__" and I google it, and found Micromax P480, so I downloaded the rom and try to flash with "Download" option but SPFlashtool error message (I don't remember) and recommended me to use Format All + Download option, then I proceed with this step, the flash has gone successfully with no errors but problem is touch screen is not working at all. I get language selection screen and I can't click on next or anything. All hardware buttons are working like volume and power. I pressed Power button and I came to know I have to press at the bottom-end of the screen.
After 2 days, I found a small written something, and I looked it carefully and that text was T702_ I think it's a model number and give search for Micromax Canvas P702 on google to look at photos, everything matches except the dts written on backside. Anyway I tried to try this firmware and this time SP flash tool giving me error "Chipset doesn't match".
Now, I am so tired finding this tablet model, please does anyone have similar tablet or anyone have good knowledge with Micromax phones? My friend has thrown the box and bills so no documents.

Update a not well-known 8.1 (treble) android Chinese smartphone to 9.0

Hey there!
My name is Thomas and I'm new to this forum. I have a cheap Chinese phone: the UMIDIGI One Pro. It's a really good smartphone provided with stock Android 8.1.
It's been a few weeks since Android 9 came out and I think it's a very good version. I currently use Pear Launcher and Power Shade to have a close interface (I'm a fan of Pie one).
I like hacking and I had a little fun yesterday by rooting my phone with Magisk and installing the God's favorite language with Termux (RUBY <3). Just looking at examples of what I could do with Termux I saw that I could see if my phone supported Treble, and contrary to what I thought ... it is!

I am a newbie so correct me if I say nonsense but I think it would allow me to update to android 9, right? I watched some tutorials but they use TWRP (and I have not found a version compatible with my phone because it is really little known and recent).
I am currently able to use:
- ADB & Fastboot
- Termux
- Magisk
- SP Flash Tools (I used it in order to install Magisk)
- The ROM folder downloaded from the website of my phone: [link blocked as I'm a new user]
But I'm not able to:
- Unlock bootloader (when I restart on fastboot and perform the command "fastboot oem unlock", it asks me to press volume up to confirm because it could void the warranty and then it says "unlock failed"
- Install TWRP (as I don't found any supported version)
Do you think I can update it to android 9? If yes, how?
Thank you very much for taking the time to read me. Sorry if my English is not very good (I'm french).
Thomas!
I found a compatible TWRP version here : [Link blocked because I don't have 10 posts]
So I installed it with SP Flash Tools. :good:
I also found a TWRP for the ONE PRO, but I have the ONE, you think it will work ?
And from what source did you get the boot.img to install Magisk ?
I have the One Pro it's the same phone except you have a bigger battery and I have wireless charging capabilities...... keep me posted because I might want to do the same

From Android N ➔ 10, restoring from TB

Hello. It's been about 5 years, and a lot has changed:
-twrp is broken, fastboot fun times
-I've got to go "systemless" root for Google pay & safety net
-there's partitions A and B to worry about
But my main question is, with these things in mind, how am I going to restore from a TB backup from my old phone? (It has all my sms, call logs, apps and data, etc)
Maybe someone can point me in the right direction for how to achieve a rooted android 10 P3a that passes safety net and will allow me to restore my titanium backup, presumably using magisk as the root method.
Is the process straightforward or are there some extra steps and things to keep in mind, any major differences?
Thoughts, comments, questions, concerns? Do tell!

Alright buddy,
If I follow this guide, then install TB, then restore... If I get one single error along the way... Then I'm holding you personally accountable, Mr... Andisa, if that is your real name.
Don't worry guys, I've done the research and compiled a nice guide for you.
Step 1. Install TB and backup everything
2. Now install Split APK Installer
3. Set the filter settings as seen in this helpful image below:

}
4. Look at the list of all the apps that TB will fail to restore
5. Uninstall TB
6. Search for a modern-day complete backup and restore solution while continuing to pray that we'll someday return to the golden era of android custom development.

Looks like you owe me an apology.
You could also try the tools provided by my Android Backup Project. Those should work on Android 7 - 11 but unfortunately not yet tested much on non stick Android builds

Aosp 5.1 Review for Huawei Y3 Lua U-22 - Tested by Myself

Hello World!
I have used Huawei Lua U-22 for somedays & flashed some CR there. I have used 3 rom from this post - Custom Roms For Huawei Y3II. Please kindly go to that post to get the download links.
Here, I am only posting some screenshots of those rom because main post didn't include them. Hope you'll 'njoy!
Aosp 5.1​Android Open Source Project - AOSP. Another clean and responsive rom for Y3 Lua U-22. The only downside of this rom I think is the ringtone section. Existing ringtones are not that good. Consider using from other source.
I can't remember, but the rom is probably not pre-rooted. I have flashed magisk to gain root access.

How to install the OS? Can you direct me to any thread

Hi,
First of all, I am really sorry I didn't see you commented. Too late :/
Anyway, unfortunately I couldn't find any thread which will guide you how to install the rom. And there is a reason for this - installing a rom is self explanatory, and very easy. You'll need a custom recovery like TWRP. Then keep the rom file in your phone storage, boot the device in recovery mode, select the rom, & press flash. After finishing the installation, reboot device, you're done!
Here are some video for you to understand the situation:
Before that, you have to root your device of course, and unlock the bootloader. Here's a video for that too, if you didn't unlock your bootloader already:
BTW, don't try to install any rom that is not made for Huawei Y3 Lua U22. It may permanently brick your device. I tried to cross port a rom & flash it myself, and guess what? My device is no more :')
Have a good day!

Update LG Wine Smart from Android 4 to 5 or 6?

Apologies for posting here but there is no forum for the LG Wine Smart (D486). Mine currently has stock 4.4.2 KitKat. Aw remember that? LG update app no longer functions correctly as it was shut down in 2020.
Is there any way to update this to 5 or preferably 6? There is an app I need that isn't compatible with Android 4.
You have to find
1. A Custom ROM suitable to phone ( specs: 1 GB RAM, 4 GB max storage )
2. If found, a Custom Recovery suitable to phone to flash the Custom ROM found
Many thanks. Sorry for the questions but if you were me, where would you look first?
Alternatively I wanted to make it clear that this phone officially shipped with Android 5.1 later in its life. I just happen to have an earlier 4.4.2 version. Where might I find the official 5.1 ROM and flash it?
Edit: I have found some options that I will try at http://lg-roms.com/lg-firmware/lg-h410/h41010d/2879
I'm not having any luck @jwoegerbauer . It turns out 4.4.2 was the latest official ROM for this phone.
Would you be able to assist a little? If you were me, where would you look first (as in URLs) to get a custom Android 6 ROM and recovery?
I'd like to update to Android 6 or higher. All the apps I want to install require Android 6+.
I'd just need to make sure it can recognise input from the LG Wine Smart D486 keypad.
